The Thatcher desk has a "boat-shaped" writing surface that brings other features into a nicely-curved conformity. It is crafted from solid walnut and features storage behind cabinet doors on both sides at one end. They lock with a vintage key. The other end is completed with four drawers fitted with silent, full-extension slides for smooth action. The modesty panel has open storage on the side opposite where you would sit. Functional and beautiful, it does not deserve to be set against a wall.
